Many products are assembled from components manufactured and distributed separately, and it is important to consider how such products are manufactured when seeking to provide commercially valuable patent protection. This article provides an example in the field of computer chip manufacture.
A system-on-a-chip
Using chiplets is an emerging trend well-covered at #62DAC and they even had a dedicated Chiplet Pavilion, so I checked out the presentation from Dan Slocombe, Design Engineering Architect in the Compute Solutions Group at Cadence. In a short 20 minutes Dan managed to cover a lot of ground, so this blog will summarize the key points.… Read More
Chip on Panel on Substrate, often shortened to CoPoS, extends the familiar idea of chip on carrier packaging by moving the redistribution and interposer style structures from circular wafers to large rectangular panels. The finished panel assembly is then mounted on an organic or glass package substrate. This shift from round
On July 9, 2025, a DACtv session by Dr. Peter Levin explored the transformative impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on chip design, as presented in the YouTube video. The speaker, an industry expert, delved into how AI is reshaping electronic design automation (EDA), addressing the escalating complexity of modern chips and… Read More

AI explosion is clearly driving semi-industry since 2020. AI processing, based on GPU, need to be as powerful as possible, but a system will reach optimum only if it can rely on top interconnects. The various sub-system need to be interconnected with ever more bandwidth and lower latency, creating the need for ever advanced protocol… Read More
